ABSTRACT
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are crucial in controlling important aspects of tumor immunity. However, whether the expression pattern of lncRNAs in stomach adenocarcinoma (STAD) reflects tumor immunity is not fully understood. We screened differentially expressed lncRNAs (DElncRNAs) between high and low tumor mutation burden (TMB) STAD samples. Using the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator method, 33 DElncRNAs were chosen to establish a lncRNA-based signature classifier for predicting TMB levels. The accuracy of the 33-lncRNA-based signature classifier was 0.970 in the training set and 0.950 in the test set, suggesting the expression patterns of the 33 lncRNAs may be an indicator of TMB in STAD. Survival analysis showed that a lower classifier index reflected better prognosis for STAD patients, and the index showed correlation with expression of immune checkpoint molecules (PD1, PDL1, and CTLA4), tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes, and microsatellite instability. In conclusion, STAD samples with different tumor mutation burdens have different lncRNA expression patterns. The 33-lncRNA-based signature classifier index may be an indicator of TMB and is associated expression of immune checkpoints, tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes, and microsatellite instability.
